Free pattern: Wrapped crop top you can wear three ways

Nicole from The Felted Fox shares a free pattern for a wrapped crop top that you can wear three ways – tied in the front with long sashes, tied in the front with a bow, or (my favorite) crossed across the front and tied at the back. You can make it from a yard of fabric or, like she did, from a men’s large shirt. Her free pattern fits a women’s size 2-4. If you need another size, it looks like it would be fairly easy to adjust using a tank that fits you as a sizing guide. Get the pattern and tutorial at The Felted Fox.
